sUNDAY.sCnOOL CELEBRATION.
THE Building Of the Temple" ut
Monumental church.

The annual Easter festival of the
Monumental church Sunday school
will take place this afternoon in the
church at o'clock. The exercises will
be interesting and original in character.
1t is proposed to build temple almost
entirely of natural flowers, which is in
tended to represent the Churcn of God,
the several parts of the building
to be contributed by the different
classes of the school. The typi-
cal edifce when finished will be
about eight feet high and three feet
wide, and will be a fac simiic of an
ancient temple. From the base of the
building will rise six columns, to be
surmounted 10y gilded dome, above
which will be a crown and Tyre, and
over all will CLEAN a brilliant gas star.
The base of the temple will be reached by
two steps, and within the pillars will be
placed large cross, signiticative OF the
passion of Christ. The pillars. steps,
&C., will be brought forward and given
their proper places in the building by
the different classes of the school.
When the structure is completed the
congregation will join in singing
"TO Thy Temple I'll Repair"
to familiar tune. Carols will
be interpreted through the exercises,
to the accompaniment of the organ
played by Mr.. Kinney and cornet in
the hands of Mr.. John Kessnich. Miss
Lora Chaplin will sing a solo" Show
Me Thy Ways, Q Lord.
The address by Rev. DIR. Burton, the
professional and occasional of the chill
dren, the erection of the symbolical
temple, and the Joyous music will
doubtless form an attractive service.

The Gift of speech.

The gift of speech is regarded as
possessed by man alone of all created
beings. Yet that gifted quadruped, the
modern piano, seems endowed not only
with the attribute of voice, but the
added power of eloquence. AS the
orator can move human hearts, so can
the piano, endowed with such powers
as is the Hartman instrument, sway the
human heart and SO prove itself the
equal of the human orator. The SYM
pathetic quality of the Hartman tones
renders it capable Of appealing directly
to the souls of those who listen to its
music. Few human voices possess this
sympathetic, soul-reaching quality, yet
here is an instrument created by man
that is endowed with that which is not
possessed by the average human being.
This quality of the Hartman Piano is
but one of IFS many desirable attributes.
1t is so well constructed that its dura-
bility under severe usage is assured.
The Hardman is the only piano that
contains the harp-stop and metal-key
bottom. Walter d. Moses &, Co. Estate

THR BOARDS MEETING.
The board held q meeting yesterday
morning and another yesterday after
noon, and at the latter Mr.. Samuel b.
Witt and Mr.. Edgar Allan were pres.
ent. II was suggested that Mr.. Witt
take steps 10 prevent the different
patches Of bonds which have reached
this city from being sent back to Balti-
moro and other places, so that they
may be here as matter Of evidence in
the event that further developments re-
quire them. Mr.. Witt has so acted.
and will order arrests, or do whatever
is necessary to accomplish the end in
view.
Mr.. Allan appeared in the dual ca
pacity of counsel for the Kendall
Bank-Note Company and to aid the
Commonwealth in the event it became
necessary, as Mr.. Witt expected to be
compelled TO leave the city tonight
Mr.. Allan assured the State officers
that his client would do all in his
power in New York to aid the govern
ment here in any way to protect both
itself and citizens.
He telegraphed Mr.. Kendall imme-
diately after leaving the Capitol, ap-
prising him first Of the discovery that
had been made, and sent later. tele-
gram asking Mr.. Kendall to inquire at
the express Office in New York what be-
came OF the package of bonds which
had been received by the Board OF
Sinking Fund Commissioners here on
July II, 1882, and which by order of
the board were shipped back to New
York by Major Nolan, secretary of the
board. 70 the first telegram Mr.. Al
Ian received the following reply:
Telegram received. Think many
bogus bonds afoat. Learned of large
block in Boston sold to-day.
GEORGE III. KENDALL. "
No reply has been received to the
second dispatch.
EXTRACT FROM THE RECORDS.
The record in the Supreme Court of
Appeals in the Kendall Bank-Note
Company's case shows that Immediately
after the S. Brown Allen board an
nulled the Kendall contract a formal
protest in writing was filed before the
board, which, after reasoning the case
from the Kendall standpoint, gave the
following emphatic notice to the board
that these bonds would be shipped,
and would not be taken i'll
by the Kendall Company if they
were returned. The company said
it "would continue to perform its
part of the contract in relation to print
Ing the bonds of the Commonwealth of
Virginia until it had done everything
and agreed by it to be done
md performed that it would continue
70 forward by express all bonds printed
Dy it under said contract as rapidly as
completed that it would decline TO re-
,eive any bonds returned to it by order
If the board, and when its ssid contract
Dad been fully executed it would sub
nit, with confidence in the purity, in
egeritv, and impartiality of the judi
iary of the Commonwealth, to the pro-
ertribunal for redress of their wrongs

The blessed Oils Brought from
baltimore.

AS il is prescribed in the ritual OF the
Catholic Church that new oils shall be
blessed every year, the bishop always
performs the ceremony with great So
lemnity on Holy Thursday. Bishop
Keene being absent from the city this
year no blessing has taken place at the
Cathedral Bishop Curtis blessed
them in Baltimore, and they were
brought here by Rev. William Payne,
a native Of Warrenton, who has Just
arrived in this city from Rome, where
he pursued his studies for about four
years at the American College and was
ordained priest for the diocese of Rich
mond.

in the City Circuit Court yesterday was
that of o. p. Dicken against the Ma
tioDal Livestock Association for S97. so,
for which he claimed to have insured a
horse. The horse died, and the asso-
citation refused TO pay the policy. The
defendant claimed that Mr.. Dicken in
sured his horse and allowed the policy
to lapse subsequently he reinsured,
and the animal died short time after
wards. They investigated the case, and
ascertained that the horse was very
sick at the time the policy was taken
out. Verdict for the defendant.
One small suit was instituted.
